Question

donate v.捐赠；捐献 (1) 我充其量只能捐助100美元。(2) 我们每年向学校的捐赠基金捐款。(3) 政府号召青年义务献血。 The verb donate has always meant "to give," all the way back to the Latin verb donāre, "to give as a gift." Trace it back even further, to the ancient Indo-European roots, and you still have that same feeling to the word — "a gift." But it's more than a gift — it's a gift with the intention of helping. As an African proverb says, "If everybody in town donates one thread, the poor man has a shirt."
